Steven, I actually get slightly angry at the thought of calling this guy's practices an "honest living" and I implore you to think about this a little more.

It's unfortunate that these guitars are worth more dead than alive (that's a fail of the market), so I do understand why he does this – but I have a serious problem with glorifying it as an "honest living."

I am thinking about this a bit more. By using the word "honest" I simply meant that he is not breaking any laws. I also feel that a perfectly good guitar should not br butchered for the sum of its parts. I also checked out the pricing of JB's parts and found that they are more expensive than purchasing them directly from Rickenbacker.
From now going forward I will think things through prior to posting.
I do recognize good advice when I see it and it is greatly appreciated.

Steven, sorry to sound harsh. Certainly not intended at you!

I meant to offer another perspective on that this guy does for a "living, " that's it really. I hope the market can correct things in the near future so it's not financially reasonable to part out perfectly good guitars, but I digress..

It's all good.
It would be nice if perfectly good guitars were not butchered for financial gain.
